This book describes a comprehensive, integrated view of separation science backed by discussions about simple extraction and partition processes to give a better understanding of advanced techniques like chromatography and membrane separations. It paves the way for an understanding of the fundamental physical and chemical phenomena involved in separations and a concise overview of transport reactions. A chapter dedicated to phytoremediation gives an understanding of the various processes involved in the bioremediation of environmental media. Features: Provides synchronous aspects of the separation process for remediation, including phytoremediation and analysis using chromatography Addresses basic separation techniques for water solutions Discusses mechanistic views of various separation processes Includes the mechanism of separation using membranes and sorbents Helps the reader understand the connection between the different discrete separation processes This book is aimed at senior undergraduate and graduate students in environmental engineering and analytical chemistry.
